Re: Change The Size Of Your Tires !
Once you get bigger tires, and your gearing figured out, send Travis a msg and he can get you a new DRAC to work with your configuration.

Re: Change The Size Of Your Tires !
That's a good link TC BUT I can do you one better! Our vehicles are superior, and the tools we use should reflect that!! Miatas are tiny and wimpy, HUMMERS are big and tough!!!!
I've got for you a MAN'S tire calculator, a calculator that juggles chain saws..... A Calculator That Kicks Ass!! A Calculator For HUMMERS. (this is the only way to make a tire calculator tire sound exciting you see) I think this does a better job at letting you know what you really care about, which is how accurate your speedo is and how much clearance you're gaining! Honestly, WTF do I care about the radius of my tires in millimeters and some big black circle that tells me NOTHING?!?! Miata calculator FAILS the judgement of JL....
Screen shot shows what stock size tire was on my H3 and what I upgraded to. Plus mine looks much prettier. Send me a PM if you want to give it a try!

That is pretty cool, now you have to make it a download-able EXE file!
The problem with that Miata one is the tire gets so big that it covers the calculation!!! lol!!

Difference between P and LT is just the load rating etc. The numbers still mean the same thing(Width in MM/Ratio of Tire Rimsize.)
P = Passenger
LT = Light Truck
